DESCRIPTION:From June 1-5\, 2026\, the Computational and Data Systems Initi
 ative\, in partnership with Quantitative Life Sciences-McGill initiative i
 n Computational Medicine and the D2R-HeDS Platform (Health Data Science)\,
  C3G and the RI-MUHC will host an RNA-seq Bootcamp.\n\nThis five-module bo
 otcamp is designed to guide participants from foundational command-line na
 vigation to the execution of advanced\, reproducible bioinformatics workfl
 ows for RNA-seq analyses. The program begins by establishing essential UNI
 X skills and data retrieval methods before progressing through experimenta
 l design and core preprocessing pipelines\, including quality control\, re
 ad alignment\, and read quantification.\n\nParticipants will then be intro
 duced to differential gene expression (DGE) analyses\, learning to apply a
 ppropriate statistical models and handle complex\, multi-factor experiment
 al designs via DESeq2 and explore functional enrichment methodologies (ORA
  and GSEA). Finally\, attendees will learn how to deploy standardized pipe
 lines (Nextflow and GenPipes) on High-Performance Computing (HPC) environm
 ents using SLURM schedulers\, concluding with a dedicated troubleshooting 
 session to support independent research applications.\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\nReg
 ister\n\nThese sessions are hybrid\, they are available both virtually or 
 in person!\n\nLearn more and register!\n
